Appendix

Troubleshooting OS issues related to AVD

In this section, we will learn how to troubleshoot session host configuration issues. We will focus on the most common issues, including domain joins and communication between the AVD service and session host agent.

VMs are not joined to the domain

VMs not joining a domain typically occurs because the username and password that were entered during the host pool’s setup/adding VMs were incorrect. Make sure that you check your password and use the full UPN of your Active Directory domain; for example, domJoin.company.local.

Important note

When you’re using MEID-joined hosts, you would expect to see the hosts joined without the domain extension shown previously.

The other issue that may be preventing your VMs from joining the domain is a networking-related one, specifically DNS. Ensure that you have configured DNS correctly so that it points to your Entra ID DS infrastructure before trying to deploy session hosts.
